Scientific paper

A crater structure of about 21 km diameter is the most prominent feature on the hemisphere of Asteroid (21) Lutetia that was observed by the OSIRIS cameras during the flyby of the Rosetta spacecraft. It shows the presence of landslides, numerous large boulders, and the largest colour variations found on the surface of the asteroid. We present evidence that it is the youngest large geological feature seen by Rosetta, and we show that there are variations in composition or size of its surface material.
